Led by Representatives Lloyd Doggett (D, TX) and Jan Schakowsky (D, IL), 113 Members of Congress urge the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) to enact robust nurse staffing ratios for nursing facilities this year. In a March 13, 2023 letter to CMS Administrator Chiquita Brooks-LaSure, the Representatives comprehensively describe the need and widespread support for nurse staffing ratios as well as the need for transparency in Medicare and Medicaid spending on nursing facilities. Proposed rules to implement the Biden-Harris Administration’s commitment to enact enforceable nurse staffing standards are expected to be published this Spring.
